At a wedding banquet, men are guests, women are bridesmaids, and men and women are ex-husbands and ex-wives who haven’t seen each other for ten years, but the way they meet again is to strike up a conversation, chat, dance like strangers, and spy on each other’s incumbents. Girlfriend and husband tease each other about the boring wedding. The affection is hard to hide, and the love is surging, but one night of indulgence cannot replace the ten years of separation. After tasting the "wrong" forbidden fruit, both of them chose the "right" decision, saying goodbye friendly and waving goodbye.
A woman's rejection is the key to the end of their relationship. When she was young, the woman left the man silently. When they met again ten years later, the woman also indifferently ignored the man's retention and show of love. Leaving ten years ago was a disappointment to the man's ignorance, and leaving ten years later was incoherent and unrealistic about being sober and loving each other again. A woman has a new career and family in London, a loving husband and lovely children, and a man far away in the United States is more appropriate as a beautiful first love, and the revival of old love does not necessarily bring happiness and joy, It is more about the pain of a man's girlfriend, the collapse of his husband and children, the condemnation of conscience and morality, the brokenness of two lives, and the embarrassment of finding out that the relationship is no longer what it used to be. A woman hides in the bathroom alone after an affair, her face is ashes, she sees through fragile social friendships and fake meeting games indifferently, and has no hope for a love that has died. The woman chose to escape desire, crying and saying "I am very happy, I am very happy" to comfort her dead soul and life, rational and dejected.
The young man who was broken up looked for a woman on the street over and over again, but in return he was only disappointed over and over again. The accumulated thoughts finally got the answer ten years later. The woman was married, and the two did not continue. possible. The man carefully expressed his love and desire, cooperated with the woman's lies to his family, and was extremely reluctant to give up and still obeyed the woman's choice to help her pack up and send her away. Men get mad when women are hesitant to open a house, refer to current girlfriend and husband repeatedly, and keep pointing out that it's a "mistake", "Who's Sarah! Who's Jeffrey!" The man is a sensual Romantic, he thinks that love is overwhelming, he can't understand a woman's behavior of giving up love because of the so-called "right" and "wrong", but he has to respect the woman's choice, because the woman's refusal makes his love come to nothing . Just like his own confession at the beginning, "the relationship is over once it's too serious."
An unequal love relationship has died out, the meeting has been lost, and the reunion will not help, and the overnight romance is nothing but self-consolation.
The film adopts a cross-jump editing method. The enthusiasm of young love is like fire and the undercurrent of middle-aged reunion reflects each other. It means the unpredictability of life and the powerful domination of time, leaving only a sigh of good fortune. lament. The movie also edited the different expressions of the protagonist facing the same situation, one is the inner thoughts, the other is the reality, the woman wants to go to kiss the man when he confesses, and the man wants to go into the bathroom and kiss the woman when he leaves. She, but fantasies can only be fantasies, both of them suppressed their true desires, politely and restrainedly refused, left, and retreated.
A dialogue-style movie, the dialogue for more than an hour seems to tell the love story of two people's life, as if it can't tell the full of helplessness and regret.
